Summer Lovin’ watermelon sign
Always having a piece of wood painted comes in handy. Especially when making this Summer Lovin’ watermelon sign. My first piece of advice when crafting is always to have square wood pieces cut, painted and ready to go. This piece is an easy make when you already have pre-painted wood blocks or boards. There are a lot of free SVG’s you can find online. I look on Pinterest and google. Find an SVG of a Watermelon, which font you want to use and watch a cute sign come together.

Large Gather Glass Framed Wall Décor
How many times do you see a used frame and pass it up or get rid of it because you have no use for it? This Large Gather Glass Framed Wall Décor is an upcycle! Krystal is the queen of finding treasures and when we both saw this beauty we knew it could be fabulous. Frames can be used in so many ways but this time I fell in love. Sometimes I fall in love with the things we make and it is hard to give them away. Krystal took the frame and cleaned it up then chose to paint it a light teal color. Once she chose the paint…

3-D Framed Wood Pumpkin
Check out how I made this 3-D Framed Wood Pumpkin. I love to turn other people’s trash into treasures! Sometimes other people don’t see the value in items like I do. Going to yard sale’s and find things for fairly cheap to make new again is one of my favorite past times. Finding this cute turquoise chicken wireframe at a yard sale for .25 got me really excited and knew I couldn’t pass it up. At the time of the purchase I had no idea what I would use it for. A few months later I purchased a 3-D wooden pumpkin for $1.00. The size of the pumpkin fit perfectly…

Stamped metal and leather cuffs made from old belts
This summer I was in charge of a youth camp for girls ages 12-18 years old. The girls always like making crafts for one of the activities during camp. As I thought about the kinds of crafts the girls like to make. I thought about how much effort goes into cutting wood and supplies for crafts that we have made in the past at youth camps. Often I have found that the girls only liked the items made at camp for a short period of time and then they are thrown away or donated to thrift stores. Wanting to make something that wasn’t too large or took a lot of…

All opinions are mine alone. #BackToBold #CollectiveBias My oldest child went off to college and wow not only was it hard to let him go but it was also eye opening how many things he kept telling me he needed for school!

Summertime Grow flower sign using dishes
One of my favorite ways to decorate and present my home is by adding fun signs to my porch and patio. With summer gardening upon us, I found this idea for a Summertime grow dish board.

I love the idea but the size of sign she was offering is rather large. I decided to create my own and make a smaller version. To create your own Summer Time grow dish board you will need: 2…
